The relativescrutiny examines the two legal structures based on their historical context, scope, applicability, relevant stakeholders, individual's personal data classification, legal provisions for cross-border data transfers, breach reporting, data processing, children's rights, and associated fines. The analysis reveals the GDPR's detailed instructions compared to the DPDPA's nascent framework. The study concludes with the potential implications and suggestions for future legislation.
